I WISH PPL WOULD STOP TRYING TO COMPARE THIS WITH OTHER DEADLY EVENTS THAT TAKE PLACE, CAR CRASHES, HIV, ETC....EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THOSE COMPARISONS, HAVE SOLUTIONS, EVERYONE OF THEM...UNTIL WE FIND A VACCINE, A CAUSE AND EFFECT OF THIS C-19 SHIT, COMPARISON A DONE DEAL....APPLE AND FUCKIN ORANGES.Interesting you decided to compare us with Japan.
Japan's coronavirus infection rate could be 'tip of the iceberg' as experts call for more testing
Okay. South Korea. Taiwan. NZ. Ausrtralia. All doing a better job. I've been working from home since last Monday. A guy just got fined $10,000 for allowing two people to drink in his restaurant (all cafes and restaurants are closed but they are allowed to do take out). I'm in Australia btw. My home country of NZ? Stage 4 lock down. Nobody allowed out unless to exercise and even then they have to have social distancing. Both countries are still expecting a rise, but that is because these measures only came in the past two weeks and the virus not only has an incubation period of 14 days, but some people are asymtomatic. IOW, they show no signs of the virus but are carriers. A local celeb who met with Tom Hanks and his wife got it. He has had it for almost three weeks, is in quarantine, has shown NO signs of the virus, been test POSITIVE three times over those weeks, and is therefore still a danger to the local population. The US? Too worried about individual rights (see the preacher arrested today), or being allowed to buy guys. Is there anything more selfish than a neocon whackadoodle 'it's all about me and my rights' Deplorable.
Don't think most Americans panic as easily with numbers... How about a bit of perspective while you put out that fire in your hair mate????
What does a NORMAL flu season look like in the US?? (Just ended in early March for all practical purposes)
NOTE 2 things.. The number of INFECTED is TWICE the number that would reported/diagnosed.. And the UNCERTAINTY ON seasonal flu is pretty much a guess just like the COVID mortality or #infected...

Get a grip bro....
One thing is gotdamn certain, we need to pack our shit and get the fuck out of China...that country goes to hell every other year with deadly shit and spreads it and we all should be sick of China.
Hey junior -- you remember in elementary school, when they showed your a bunch of pictures and asked you WHICH ONES weren't like the others???
I was NOT comparing dissimilar fruits here... I was comparing ONE FLU to ANOTHER.... Not a car crash, not the Friday night body count in Chicago... TWO different FLUs....
Actually they are 2 different flus. And one doesn't have a vaccine.
